Although you can apparently buy a cup of hot coffee at Dutch Bros, it doesn't make much sense to go there for that and wait in line with a bunch of teenagers. But if you want an iced chocolate raspberry crappuchino with extra pumps of colored sweetener in a giant plastic cup with a giant plastic dome lid and a giant plastic straw, that's where you want to go.
